Today I want to eat shepherd's purse dumplings. Originally, the old man wanted to chop the stuffing, but Xu Zhuo refused.

This kind of physical labor is better for young people.

And Xu Zhuo also wanted to take this opportunity to try the level of meat cutting.Yes, today's minced meat, Xu Zhuo didn't intend to chop it, but prepared to cut it.

The lion head with crab powder in Huaiyang cuisine is also called sunflower chopped meat. The meat used is not chopped at all, and it is all cut by the chef.

Today Xu Zhuo also plans to use this kind of meat stuffing prepared at that time to see how it tastes.

Cutting meat stuffing is not just a matter of cutting the meat casually. Compared with chopping meat, the requirements are very high.

For example, the size should be uniform, and all the meat should be cut into dices the size of pomegranate seeds, and the grains should be distinct and clear.

Moreover, light cutting is not enough, and it takes a long time of beating until the meat is glued together, and the meat is considered finished.

Xu Zhuo cut the meat well, then put some salt into the meat filling, and whipped it in the basin for about [-] minutes, and then the meat filling was finished.

Compared with chopped minced meat, the texture and taste of minced meat are greatly improved.

Xu Zhuo put the minced meat in a larger disposable lunch box, called Yu Keke upstairs, and the two drove straight to the old lady's house with the minced meat.

Before leaving, Xu Zhuo naturally didn't forget to bring a pack of dried fish for Xiong Zai, lest he be blocked at the door and not let in.

After arriving at the old lady's house, Chen Guifang and Xu Wenhai were already here.

I really can't do anything, eating No.1.

Every time there is something delicious, these two bites will appear on time.

Xu Zhuo originally wanted to complain, but when he thought about the misery of Comrade Xu Wenhai, he couldn't bear it.

If you complain about Chen Guifang alone, Xu Wenhai will be the last one to get angry, so forget it.

And Xu Wenhai was not idle here, not only reconciled the noodles for making dumplings, but even made some side dishes to go with the dumplings.

For example, side dishes such as ginger juice lotus root, ginger juice egg, red ear shreds, cold seaweed shreds, and laba garlic. These dishes are relatively refreshing and suitable for eating with dumplings.

Xu Zhuo poured the minced meat into the basin, and the old man immediately began to season it.

Put minced green onion and ginger, pepper powder, pepper powder, dark soy sauce cooking wine into the meat stuffing in turn, and then put a drop of white sugar for freshness, stir well and set aside to marinate for flavor.

Taking advantage of this time, the old man washed the shepherd's purse yesterday again, drained the water, chopped it, and mixed it with the minced meat.

Then, the men of the whole family started making dumplings together.

And the woman at home was petting the cat in the living room while making video calls with Yu Keke's grandma, chatting about digging wild vegetables.

After the dumplings were made, Xu Wenhai cooked the dumplings in the kitchen, Xu Zhuo served the dishes to the restaurant, and the old man started to prepare the dipping sauce.

In the field of Chinese food, the dipping sauce of dumplings is really varied and diverse.

The most common ones are vinegar or chili oil, and some light soy sauce or sesame oil are added for more complicated dishes.

If you still want to be professional, then pay attention.

For example, the dipping sauce that the old man is making now is quite complicated.

Two spoonfuls of minced garlic, one spoonful of minced ginger, one spoonful of sesame oil, four spoonfuls of light soy sauce, four spoonfuls of balsamic vinegar, one spoonful of oyster sauce, half a spoonful of white sugar, and then add an appropriate amount of millet pepper rings, stir well, and the dipping sauce is ready.

"Xiao Zhuo, have you learned it? This dipping sauce is not only suitable for eating dumplings, but also suitable for eating boiled shrimp, crab, steamed buns, boiled meat, etc. It can be said to be a universal dipping sauce."

With a proud face, the old man divided the prepared dipping sauce into plates, one for each person. If it is not too spicy, you can also add some millet pepper rings or chili oil, the taste is just as good.

Roll the dumplings out of the pan and serve!

The spring rain outside is pattering, and the dumplings in the house are fragrant.

Xu Zhuo dipped the dumplings in the dipping sauce, and chewed them lightly in his mouth. The dipping sauce was hot and sour, the dumpling skin was full of strength, and the meat filling inside was even more delicious.

It stands to reason that the umami of wild vegetables does not match the aroma of meat, because one is simple and the other is greasy, but the combination of shepherd's purse and pork is very suitable.

The aroma of the pork is mixed with the deliciousness of the shepherd's purse, and the shepherd's purse neutralizes the greasyness of the pork, and the pork is distinct, so it tastes really special.

If you take another bite of Laba garlic at this time, there will be no cure.

It can no longer be described as delicious, but I feel light and light, as if I have received a great gift.

This……

Perhaps it is the charm of food.

Xu Zhuo ate the dumplings, picked up a pair of chopsticks from time to time, and then took a sip of the white wine that the old man kept in his wine glass, feeling that his life was quite complete.

The spring rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, which made the old lady very happy: "Once the rain is over, there will be more and more delicious wild vegetables outside. As long as you like to eat them, I will dig them for you."

Yu Keke ate the dumplings while thinking: "When spring comes, it's time for catkins to float outside again. It's so annoying."

When the old lady heard this, she smiled and said to the girl: "Do you think catkins are annoying? Let's eat them later, so that we won't bother Keke."

Yu Keke was stunned: "Can catkins be eaten?"

"It can be eaten, but what you eat is not catkins, but willow spikes, which are the spikes that come out of willow leaves just after they grow. It can be mixed with cold salad or dried and made into tea. It tastes very good."

After explaining to Yu Keke, the old man picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

"When I was young, there was a shortage of supplies. At that time, let alone willow ears, I even rushed to eat willow leaves. Today's young people don't even know that willow ears can still be eaten. Life is getting better and better."

After finishing speaking, the old man said to Yu Keke and Xu Zhuo, "When the willow tassels grow this year, I will make some for you two, so that you can also remember the bitterness and think sweetly."

Originally, Xu Zhuo was still looking forward to it, but the old man's words made him uneasy.

Is this delicious or not?

Chapter 968 Don't You Need To Learn Tofu?

In the next few days, as the rain stopped, the old lady went to dig wild vegetables a few more times, but Xu Zhuo didn't follow them these few times, and Xu Wenhai drove the old lady there instead.

Is Xu Wenhai too idle?

Of course not, isn't it because the old lady manages the money, so she can ask for some pocket money.

Xu Zhuo was very clear about Lao Xu's plan, so he didn't rush to go together.

Well, give old Xu a chance to ask for pocket money, lest he take the risk of embezzling the public funds of Xu's restaurant.

"Boss Xu, Lao Meng and I shall start now?"

Li Hao's voice pulled Xu Zhuo out of his sympathy for Lao Xu.

Today Li Hao brought his team and finally came to the provincial capital. The first stop was Sifang Restaurant, and Lao Meng was the object of the banquet.

The two big stomach kings have joined forces and have already reserved the top spot on today's popularity list.

Originally, I planned to add Zhou Wen and Xu Zhuo today, but Zhou Wen temporarily took over a job from another place, and Xu Zhuo couldn't just sit in a private room with the two of them for the live broadcast.

So in the end, only Li Hao and Lao Meng were left to partner together.

But this is also good, there is no need to worry about being cold or having no topic, because the two of them live live with a style of talking very little and just focusing on eating.

After the live broadcast started, Xu Zhuo brushed some gifts in the live broadcast room between the two of them, showed his face to say hello to the fans, and left to go back to work in the back kitchen.

Thanks to the good business in the store, the relationship between the kitchen staff is very good.

In the words of Guan Junjie, the back kitchen is too busy, and everyone is too busy to intrigue.

In this environment, everyone is growing rapidly.

For example, Guo Xingwang, after finishing his job, would go to Jianguo to practice pasta cooking.

Now this guy can not only knead noodles proficiently, but even make decent noodles with a noodle slicer.

Although his level is naturally not comparable to Feng Weiguo's, but this research is very good, which makes Feng Weiguo very satisfied, and the idea of ​​accepting apprentices is getting stronger and stronger.

Of course, this is because Feng Weiguo didn't know Guo Xingwang's motivation for learning pasta. If he knew that this guy learned pasta for the purpose of being close to a rich woman, he wouldn't have the idea of ​​recruiting disciples even if he was killed.

When Feng Weiguo looked at Guo Xingwang with admiring eyes again with his hands behind his back, Xu Zhuo couldn't help but urge him up.

"Grandpa Feng, since you've got the idea of ​​accepting an apprentice, you should do it as soon as possible. Anyway, no matter what you think, it's almost written on your face. Everyone is waiting for Xingwang to treat you to dinner."

Feng Weiguo shook his head calmly: "Don't worry, it's not the time yet, we have to continue to observe."

"If you continue to observe, he will be a teacher!"

Feng Weiguo was unmoved, and insisted on his principles: "Based on his current level, he has not even entered the stage, let alone graduated from the teacher."

This is true, although Guo Xingwang can do everything, but it is only superficial, there are many things he can't do.

For example, Guo Xingwang doesn't understand hard dough.

There is also the use of a noodle slicer, which is also with a playful mentality. The noodle sliced ​​out is uneven in thickness and length. Not to mention comparing with Feng Weiguo, even Xu Guabi can beat him by two blocks.

Seeing that Feng Weiguo was not in a hurry to accept apprentices, Xu Zhuo didn't try to persuade him again, lest it backfired.

He touched Feng Weiguo's shoulder and said, "Grandpa Feng, teach me how to make Wenxi boiled cakes. I have checked a lot of information recently, and I think I can try it."

In the past, Feng Weiguo would start kneading the dough and preparing to make it without saying a word, but today...

"Let's talk about this later, I have to watch Xingwang during the day, and give advice to Shi Lei at night, so I'm a bit busy."

Sure enough, Feng Weiguo changed.

But Xu Zhuo was not discouraged, because the later Feng Weiguo started teaching, the smoother Xu Zhuo pretended to be for a few days, and the more reason he used his skills to do it.

Moreover, fried desserts such as Wenxi boiled cakes are not suitable for new additions in the store, so Xu Zhuo is not in a hurry to make them.

What if I come across a task related to Wenxi cooking cakes later, wouldn't this be a waste of money?

Feng Weiguo was not in a hurry to recruit apprentices, and he was not in the mood to teach Xu Zhuo how to cook, but the other old man was very quiet and wanted to move, so he ran to Sifang Restaurant.

"Xiao Zhuo, the weather has turned warm and cold recently, so it's suitable for eating tofu. Would you like me to teach you how to cook a tofu dish from the Central Plains?"

Xu Zhuo was surprised that Zhao Jinma, whom he hadn't seen for many days, actually came.

Because from years ago until now, Zhao Jinma has been busy with the affairs of the federation, so he didn't expect to come to the store to teach himself how to cook.

Seeing that Feng Weiguo has found his favorite apprentice, can't he hold back?

However, there is no need to learn tofu dishes, right?

Both the old man and Yu Peiyong had taught him, and Sifang Restaurant also has two dishes of crab roe tofu and crab powder tofu.

In addition, there are dishes such as homemade tofu pot taufu bandit tofu.

Learning tofu dishes will be a bit repetitive.

And here in the Central Plains, I haven't heard of any special tofu dishes.

But despite his reluctance, Xu Zhuo didn't care to refuse. After all, he is an elder, and he has been helping him manage the federation.

"Hey, Grandpa Zhao, it's really time for you to come. You are just about to serve a new dish in the store recently, so you come here. Are you going to teach me what to cook?"

Even Feng Weiguo could make do with this, and he was also very curious which tofu dish Zhao Jinma was going to teach Xu Zhuo to cook.

If it's commonplace, then take advantage of the situation to ridicule and help Brother Xu check it out.

"This dish is called pot stickers tofu, and it is a famous dish unique to our Central Plains."

When Xu Zhuo heard the name, the first thing Xu Zhuo thought of was potted tofu. Wouldn't it be the same as sea cucumber with scallions, changing the name and adding it to his own cuisine?

Xu Zhuo originally wanted to ask if it was Guotao Tofu, but he noticed that Feng Weiguo's expression changed from disdain to surprise, so he stopped talking.

It seems that this dish is not what I thought.

Otherwise, according to Feng Weiguo's temperament, his ridicule may have already come out.

But now, what Feng Weiguo said was: "This dish is good, it is really suitable for eating now, Xiao Zhuo, learn from your Grandpa Zhao, this old man has real skills."

After speaking, he folded his arms and continued to watch Guo Xingwang play with dough.

With Feng Weiguo's words as a foundation, Xu Zhuo naturally did not take it lightly, and even had a little expectation.

Moreover, after learning Longyin Xiantao last time, the skills that he has devoted himself to learning have been cooled down again, and he can happily steal cooking skills again.

Zhao Jinma didn't know the change in Xu Zhuo's heart, he began to order Xu Zhuo to prepare the ingredients to be used on his own.

"In addition to tofu, this dish also needs to use chicken breast, pig fat and lard, and also needs to prepare some lettuce leaves."

Xu Zhuo was a little puzzled, it was just a tofu dish, why did he use chicken breast and pork fat?

Isn't this greasy?

However, according to the principle of "the weirder the ingredients, the better the sales" in cooking, it might still be a very popular dish.
